BGS 9.5 RESHIRAM & CHARIZARD GX 220 TAG TEAM GX ALL STARS JAPANESE POKEMON
BGS 9.5 RESHIRAM & CHARIZARD GX 220 TAG TEAM GX ALL STARS JAPANESE POKEMON
Price: $249.99
Reshiram & Charizard GX from the Tag Team GX All Stars set, ultra rare, slapped in a BGS 9.5 slab. This Japanese printing packs a punch with its tag team vibes.
That artwork? Reshiram and Charizard mid-roar, flames everywhere, like they’re about to melt the battlefield. The colors pop in that classic Ken Sugimori style, with Charizard’s wings flared and Reshiram’s turbine tail glowing hot.
On the text side, it’s a Fire type with 270 HP. Ability is Flare Starter, letting you attach up to three Fire Energy from deck to your Pokémon when you play it. Attacks include Outrage for 30 plus more based on damage counters, and the big GX move, Crimson Storm GX, dishing 300 damage but discarding five Energy—plus an extra attack if you got the goods.
Set dropped in 2019 as SM11a in Japan, a high-end compilation pulling the best Tag Team cards from previous expansions. What stands out here is the Japanese exclusivity; this All Stars version crams in chase cards without the filler, making it a collector’s shortcut to tag team glory. It’s got that clean text and holo shine that English prints sometimes tweak, giving it a purist edge for slab hunters.
Slab-wise, BGS 9.5 means gem mint territory—think subgrades hovering around 9.5 or 10 for centering, edges crisp as fresh packs, surfaces smooth without a whisper of whitening. Eye appeal is off the charts with that full art bleed and rainbow holofoil that catches light like a bonfire. Pop reports? From what I’ve seen in the community, BGS 9.5s for this card aren’t flooding the market; estimates put total graded around a few hundred across services, with 9.5s being a solid chunk but not endless supply. It’s the kind of piece that holds its own in a display case, no drama.
I’d stash this one next to my fire-type binders, just to feel that tag team energy every time I walk by.
